Updates the requirements on posthog to permit the latest version.

Changelog

Sourced from posthog's changelog.

6.0.0

This release contains a number of major breaking changes:

  • feat: make distinct_id an optional parameter in posthog.capture and related functions
  • feat: make capture and related functions return Optional[str], which is the UUID of the sent event, if it was sent
  • fix: remove identify (prefer posthog.set()), and page and screen (prefer posthog.capture())
  • fix: delete exception-capture specific integrations module. Prefer the general-purpose django middleware as a replacement for the django Integration.

To migrate to this version, you'll mostly just need to switch to using named keyword arguments, rather than positional ones. For example:

# Old calling convention
posthog.capture("user123", "button_clicked", {"button_id": "123"})
# New calling convention
posthog.capture(distinct_id="user123", event="button_clicked", properties={"button_id": "123"})
Better pattern
with posthog.new_context():
posthog.identify_context("user123")
# The event name is the first argument, and can be passed positionally, or as a keyword argument in a later position
posthog.capture("button_pressed")

Generally, arguments are now appropriately typed, and docstrings have been updated. If something is unclear, please open an issue, or submit a PR!

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
